Liberal-leaning Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor compared the risks of puberty blockers and sex-mutilating surgeries for minors to the risks of taking Aspirin on Wednesday.
Sotomayor made the shocking comparison during oral arguments in United States v. Skrmetti, a case brought by the Biden administration challenging Tennessee’s law banning sex change drugs and procedures for minors who believe they are transgender.

Give the fat pig some aspirin instead of insulin and tell her it’s the same.

No we haven’t!!
We’ve Climbed back into the driver’s seat on the SCOTUS.
We have both chambers and the presidency.
Well, yeah, the fact that this is even a thing means you’re right :)
But we will climb just as fast!

She seems to say a lot of really stupid things like this in high profile cases.
This may be the most stupid yet. Body mutilation and chemical castration is akin to taking an aspirin...absolutely insane.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Body altering surgeries, cross sex hormones, and puberty blockers, pose the same risks as taking aspirin tablets?
Really? There’s no discernable difference to Sotomayor?
So then, since we don’t prohibit aspirin, that means we shouldn’t prohibit these surgeries and hormonal treatments?
This is her logic?
To: ChicagoConservative27
Her ignorance is appallingly deep.

We had both chambers and the presidency in 2016, but I truly hope it’s different this time.

What a complete idiot.
I wonder if her arm were chopped off as a teenager due to some kind of body integrity dysphoria, she’d grow up thinking it was no different from taking an aspirin...

My friend wound up bleeding internally from taking aspirin.
IN FACT, they no longer recommend "Aspirin" as a solution to prevent heart attacks.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Funny thing is that giving aspirin to children is contraindicated as it can cause Reye’s Syndrome.

Also,
If you were assigned male at birth, puberty blockers will stop or limit:
- growth of facial and body hair
- deepening of the voice
- broadening of the shoulders
- growth of Adam’s apple
- growth of gonads (testes) and erectile tissue (penis)
If you were assigned female at birth, puberty blockers will stop or limit:
- breast tissue development
- broadening of the hips
- monthly bleeding
In both cases, puberty blockers will temporarily stop or limit:
- growth in height
- development of sex drive
- impulsive, rebellious, irritable or risk-taking behaviour
- accumulation of calcium in the bones
- fertility

(https://save.org/about-suicide/suicide-facts/)
LGBQ young people are more than twice as likely to feel suicidal, and over four times as likely to attempt suicide, compared to heterosexual youth (Kann 2016)
In a 2016-2017 survey from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, 28 percent of LGBTQ youth — including 40 percent of transgender youth — said they felt depressed most or all of the time during the previous 30 days, compared to only 12 percent of non-LGBTQ youth (HRC Foundation 2017: https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/LGBTQ_MentalHealth_OnePager.pdf)
A large study also found that of 10,270 transgender patients identified, approximately 58% of transgender patients had at least one DSM-5 diagnosis compared with 13.6% of cisgender patients, indicating transgenders had about 4.5 times higher rate of psychiatric illness than straight persons. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6830528/)
Psychiatric disorders were more prevalent among homosexually active people compared with heterosexually active people. Homosexual men had a higher 12-month prevalence of mood disorders and anxiety disorders than heterosexual men. Homosexual women had a higher 12-month prevalence of substance use disorders than heterosexual women. (https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/481699)
The suicide attempt rate among transgender persons ranges from 32% to 50% across the countries. Fifty percent of transgender persons in Australia have attempted suicide at least once in their lives.[12] In England, 48% of the transgender young people had attempted suicide at least once in their lives.[13] The prevalence of suicide remains high among transgender persons irrespective of disclosing their transgender status to others and undergoing sex reassignment surgery.[8] (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5178031)
"41% of trans adults said they had attempted suicide, in one study. The same study found that 61% of trans people who were victims of physical assault had attempted suicide." (https://save.org/about-suicide/suicide-facts/)
(Note that compassion toward such is to be shown, while the high suicide rate among LGBTQ persons is blamed on societal rejection, yet in the West it is actually those who oppose homosexual relations that face the most widespread persecution, and minorities such as evangelical Christians face great persecution worldwide without being suicidal.)
Based upon a review of 40 studies that involved a total of roughly 185,000 adults with HIV or AIDS (PLWHA -- People Living With HIV/AIDS), "suicide risk is 100 times higher among such patients," and with "person attempting suicide for every two who think about it. And among every 13 who do attempt it, one ends up losing their life." (https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2021-07-06/people-with-hiv-have-much-higher-risk-for-suicide)
In 2017 almost 35% of high school students who identified as transgender reported attempting suicide in the last 12 months (versus 9.% of straights), and almost 44% considered attempting it. Transgender students were much more likely to have ever had engaged in sexual relations than were cisgender (straight) females (43.1% versus 33.2%), and with more persons, while almost 15% reported their first act was before age 13 years vs. 1.5% for straights.
Approximately 41% of transgender people attempt suicide at least once in their lives compared to the rate of 5% in the general population. [122] https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/european-psychiatry/article/risk-factors-for-suicide-in-the-transgender-community/3AE67FF7615DDB5452A9672F9DF11714 March 2020
Almost 23% of transgender students reported they had experienced sexual dating violence, with approx. 26% reporting it has being physical. In addition, 70% reported lifetime alcohol, use, Ecstasy 31.6% cocaine 27.2%, heroin 26.1%, methamphetamines 24.9%, and prescription opioid misuse 35.9% respectively.

In addition,
While Insurers can charge tobacco users up to 50% more than those who don’t use tobacco, (and certain high-risk behaviors as sky-diving can raise Life Insurance costs), yet since protected classes are no longer restricted to such non-moral aspects as race, skin color, national origin, etc. but includes psychological and (immoral) behavioral orientation, then rather having higher insurance premiums due to an unhealthy (homosexual) lifestyle, insurance companies and that of the government are required to pay costs for both prevention and care. And with the raise of the transgender right, then under the ACA gender can no longer be a factor in determining rates.

Holly frigging bat shit monkey balls fig spitting fried chicken beaks the hell is she spouting rat crap out her cake hole.
So all those release forms and initials next to acknowledging risks and possible complications during even the most basic procedure is for nothing
.
If a surgical procedure is just like taking aspirin., then why should surgeons even have malpractice insurance.
To: ChicagoConservative27
And because she has assessed and balanced the risk, the constitution forbids anything where she thinks the risk is small?
